SOME IMPORTANT CHANGES.

A recent order issued by Land Commis.
sioncr Sparks, of which brief mention has
been made in the dispatches, will revolu-
tionizc the procedure so far as desert

important provisions are the following

cases state their places of actual residence,
their business or occupation, and their
post office address. 1t is not sufficient to
name the county and state or territory
where a party lives, but the own or city

The declaration and corroboratlng at
idavits may be made before either the reg
ister sr receiver of the land district in
which the lands are situated, or before the
Judge or clerk of a court Of record of the
county in which the lands are situated,
and if the lands are in an unorganized
county, then the affidavit may
be taken in an adjacent county.
The dispositions of applicant and
witnesses in making final proof must be
u IltAloNlg ~ Ahi amy Nv
afid wits of app licant aud witnesses must
in every instance, either OF original appli
cation or final proof, be made at the
same time and place and before the same

made in advanee-o of the regular progress
of the public surveys
Before inal proofs shall be submitted
by n person claiming to enter lands
under the desert land act, such person
will be required to file a notice Of inten
ton to make such proof, which shall be
published in the same manner as required

Rather particular, wasn't he's re-
marked the reporter to n jcwclcr, refer
ring to a man Of sporting proclivitics who
had just purchased a horseshoe scarf pin
inter hunting over the entire stock.
Yes asscuted the jeweler. "Men
who follow the turf are all more or less
superstitious. The horseshoe pin is a
great ~fuvorite with them, but they all
want one with seven nails in it. The ma
jority Of pins have four nails on each side,
SO the ones with only seven soon get picked
out, y turfman is ashamed to acknowl-
edge that he is superstitious, and will go
out without buying sooner than admit
what he is looking for. Seven was con-
sidercd a lucky number by the uncients,
and has come down as such TO the present
generation, Often n man will AXE q

then have us spoil it by knocking one Of
them out. 1t is merely a foolish supersti-

ACCORDING 10 the Morning Net0s one
Of the most extraordinary games Of poker
on record was played in Paris last week
in a private house. The ante was a louis
and the game unlimited. Late in the
evening hands were dealt in which one of
the players, a Frenchman. raised the ante
and drove out all the players except one,
an American, who raised his opponent
Over 100, OOOE we're in the pool before
either party drew. The Frenchman drew
one card, the American stood pat. The
American bet O,OOOf; the Frenchman
raised the bet 100, 00Of. The American
raised this 100, OOOE., aud thus the betting
proceeded until there were | o US on the
table for 1000, O0Of. The American then
raised his opponent 500, 0O0f., warning
him not to raise in turn, as he was sure
he had the winning hand. The French
man thereupon called, having down four
aces. The American had a straight flush,
king high. The money was paid mex
day.

stated that one night about eight
days ago, while sleeping in a house

ports, but they heard nothing fur
ther, and concluding that the
noise was merely peals of thunder,
wentto sleep again. In the morn
ing they were told that they had
been reports Of two cannon shots,
which were fired from cruiser in
pursuit of American fishing
schooners. The second shot struck
one of the schooner's masts, which
fell with the sails, and turned
the schooner completely over on
her side, when she filled and sank
Immediately. Every man on
board went down. The lives lost

stated, was witnessed by couple
of Bactouche fishermen, who were
off shore in a row boat, and who

gentleman says every effort is be-
ing made to keep it quiet.
